Grading Fractures on Foot and Ankle X-rays and MRI Scans in the Active Charcot Foot in Diabetes: How Strong Is the Agreement Between Modalities?
DIABETES CARE(2023)
摘要
OBJECTIVETo compare X-ray and MRI as diagnostic tests of active Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy (CNO) in diabetes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSX-rays and MRI scans of 48 participants were rated for severity of fracture (0 = no fracture, 1 = fracture, 2 = collapse/fragmentation), and for absence/presence of bone marrow edema (BME) on MRI and absence/presence of bone injury on X-ray. The agreement between modalities was assessed with tests for symmetry, marginal homogeneity, and kappa-coefficients.RESULTSX-ray underscored MRI in grading fractures in the metatarsals (P = 0.05) and tarsals (P < 0.001) and reported as normal 79% of the bones with BME. The agreement between X-ray and MRI for grading severity of fracture was moderate to substantial (kappa = 0.53; P < 0.001) and for detecting bone injury, slight to fair (kappa = 0.17; P < 0.001).CONCLUSIONSThe significant underperformance of X-ray in the assessment of the hot, swollen foot in diabetes should be considered when confirming or refuting the diagnosis of active CNO.
